| Summary | "The Last Journals of David Livingstone, in Central Africa, from 1865 to His Death" by Horace Waller is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work compiles the final journals of the renowned explorer and missionary David Livingstone during his last years in Africa, detailing his explorations and experiences until his death. The narrative chronicles Livingstone's struggles with health, encounters with various tribes, and the impact of Arab slave traders in the region he sought to explore. At the start of the book, Livingstone reflects on the challenges he faced at the beginning of 1869, including a dangerous illness that left him weak and nearly helpless. He recounts the kindness he received from local Arabs as he traveled towards Lake Tanganyika, where he eventually hoped to procure supplies and recover his strength. Despite his health struggles and the plundering by traders, Livingstone remains determined to continue his explorations, ultimately contemplating a journey into the territory of the Manyuema people, highlighting both the beauty of the land and the ongoing conflicts exacerbated by the slave trade.
